Hey, while it's true that those indian starups are very similar to the American ones, but the thing is that it's not easy to build a startup even when you know about an existing concept which worked in the us. When you see some stuff working in the US, all it means is that people are using it and it has a pmf, but that doesn't mean that you can easily just 'Copy' that in your country and Build a successful brand easily. You mentioned about Zomato. So let's take that as an example. Zomato isn't the first or only company which experimented with food delivery. We got Food panda, uber eats, swiggy and so many more. Out of them only Swiggy and Zomato were able to survive. So just 'copying' someone doesn't mean you'll succed. you have put all the efforts and only then you can succeed

Its not just copy paste... its all about how they executed it.

zomato doordash ka market khatam kar raha hai, OYO or Airbnb copy to nahi hai but ha india hai to logg bolnge ge hi fir vi OYO vi Airbnb ko acha takar de raha hai, OLA pata nahi ye kya hi kar raha hai, flipkart avi IPO ki planing kar raha hai

don't invent the wheel. As Brian Tracy says just follow what the best does and you will be successful

Meituan -> Doordash DiDi -> Uber Alibaba -> Amazon Tujia -> Airbnb China also has similar startups. Replicating what works isn't copying, it's smart.

How is OYO copied from airbnb

swiggy is the copy of doordash Zomato founder in 2008 but doordash in 2012

CRTL+C & CRTL+V🤣

I have an idea that is scalable to that level but completely unique. looking for investors, co founder CTOs

Honestly if india had its own brex or ramp we'd be unicorn printing

It’s more about the execution, concept is pretty obvious

Minimalist -> The ordinary

Kinda true. Also think a lot of us shark tank startup ideas are really applicable in india

copy paste SOMETIMES doesn't work like you expected to do it 😞

Even Facebook YouTube Google Chrome etc all are copies. Idk why all target only Indians 🥲

Give me an openai + vernacular app built for kirana stores and i'll show you a decacorn

do you think ideas like duolingo or zocdoc can even scale in india with such low per-user monetization?

love how you framed this. india doesn’t copy, it localizes. context is our real moat.

well I just checked doordash was founded on 2013 while zomato was founded on 2008 so check your facts right
